Good morning,
My name is Dwight Smith, and I only had a question or two in terms of the
future useability of FreeBSD. I have used it on and off and found it to be a
great UNIX operating system for servers, but my only major concern was the
amount of time it takes to prepare a server such as an Apache Server with
PHP and MySQL support as opposed to a Linux system which is what I am
currently using now as well as my company. I guess my question is that will
the ease of building or installing software for FreeBSD ever streamline to
where you do not have to do as many steps and text config file entries? What
had me curious to asking this is this article I read about a review on
FreeBSD 6.2 (http://www.softwareinreview.com/cms/content/view/67/) The
reviewer had a lot of criticisms that seemed harsh, but at the same time
raised some valid points. I only ask this question as I would like to see
FreeBSD get the same recognition as Linux as FreeBSD is a powerful OS that
should not be overshadowed and I hope it doesn't cause it saved my IT job
many a times when a server crashes and I have to piece together an old PII
with 32 MB RAM and install FreeBSD with Samba. So thanks in advance for your
attention in this and I wish all of you the best.
Sincerely,
Dwight Smith
